I like Google as much as the next guy/gal but, is it not Google's MO to co-op existing tech to attempt to make it better? Maybe the logo is a sneak peak at a new line of Google Toys (TM)?

I don't think Google is copying...it's just happens to look similar. If it wasn't ball shaped, it'd be closer, but it's not even close to relevant. What are the chances that Simon fans are going to be looking for a new browser?
